1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 36 is a late-onset, slowly progressive cerebellar syndrome with motor neuron degeneration that is caused by expansions of a hexanucleotide repeat (GGCCTG) in the noncoding region of NOP56 gene, with a histopathological feature of RNA foci formation in postmortem tissues. Here, we report a cellular model using the spinocerebellar ataxia type 36 patient induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). We generated iPSCs from spinocerebellar ataxia type 36 patients and differentiated them into neurons. The number of RNA-foci-positive cells was increased in patient iPSCs and iPSC-derived neurons. Treatment of the 2'-O, 4'-C-ethylene-bridged nucleic acid antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) targeting NOP56 pre-mRNA reduced RNA-foci-positive cells to ∼50% in patient iPSCs and iPSC-derived neurons. NOP56 mRNA expression levels were lower in patient iPSCs and iPSC-derived neurons than in healthy control neurons. One of the ASOs reduced the number of RNA-foci-positive cells without altering NOP56 mRNA expression levels in patient iPSCs and iPSC-derived neurons. These data show that iPSCs from spinocerebellar ataxia type 36 patients can be useful for evaluating the effects of ASOs toward GGCCTG repeat expansion in spinocerebellar ataxia type 36.
